CRASH SENSORS AND
AIRBAG INDICATOR
WARNING: Modifying or adding
equipment to the front end of your
vehicle (including hood, bumper system,
frame, front end body structure, tow
hooks and hood pins) may affect the
performance of the airbag system,
increasing the risk of injury. Do not
modify or add equipment to the front
end of your vehicle.
Your vehicle has a collection of crash and
occupant sensors which provide
information to the restraints control
module. The restraints control module
deploys (activates) the seatbelt
pretensioners, driver airbag, passenger
airbag, knee airbag(s), seat mounted side
airbags and the Safety Canopy. Based on
the type of crash, the restraints control
module will deploy the appropriate safety
devices.
The restraints control module also
monitors the readiness of the above safety
devices plus the crash and occupant
sensors. The readiness of the safety
system is indicated by a warning indicator
light in the instrument cluster or by a
backup tone if the warning light is not
working. Routine maintenance of the
airbag is not required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated by
one or more of the following:
• The readiness light either flashes or
stays lit.
• A series of five beeps will be heard. The
tone pattern repeats periodically until
the problem, the light or both are
repaired. •
The readiness light will not illuminate
immediately after you switch the
ignition on.
If any of these things happen, even
intermittently, have the supplemental
restraint system serviced at an authorized
dealer immediately. Unless serviced, the
system may not function properly in the
event of a crash.
The seatbelt pretensioners and the airbag
supplemental restraint system are
designed to activate when the vehicle
sustains frontal or sideways deceleration
sufficient to cause the restraints control
module to deploy a safety device or when
a certain likelihood of a rollover event is
detected by the rollover sensor.
The fact that the seatbelt pretensioners
or airbags did not activate for both front
seat occupants in a crash does not mean
that something is wrong with the system.
Rather, it means the restraints control
module determined the accident
conditions (crash severity, belt usage)
were not appropriate to activate these
safety devices.
• The design of the front airbags is to
activate only in frontal and near-frontal
crashes (not rollovers, side impacts or
rear impacts) unless the crash causes
sufficient frontal deceleration.
• The design of the seatbelt
pretensioners is to activate in frontal,
near-frontal and side crashes and in
rollovers.
• The design of the side airbags is to
inflate in certain side impact crashes
and in rollovers. Side airbags may
activate in other types of crashes if the
vehicle experiences sufficient sideways
motion or deformation.

lamp turns off and you can no longer open
the liftgate. Pull and release the liftgate
control on the overhead console again to
restart the timer.
Note: You can also unlock the liftgate by
using the key blade inserted into the liftgate
lock cylinder.
Locking
The liftgate locks when any of the
following occur:
• You open and close the liftgate after
you pull and release the liftgate control
on the overhead console.
• The 45 second timer expires.
Locking and Unlocking the Doors
with the Key Blade
Locking with the Key

ANTI-THEFT ALARM
Alarm System
The perimeter alarm is a deterrent against
unauthorized access to your vehicle
through the doors, luggage compartment
and the hood.
Triggering the Alarm
Once armed, the alarm is triggered in any
of the following ways:
•
If someone opens a door, cargo area
or the hood without a valid key or
remote control.
If the alarm is triggered, the horn will sound
for 30 seconds and the hazard warning
flasher will flash for five minutes.
Any further attempts to perform one of the
above will trigger the alarm again.
Arming the Alarm
To arm the alarm, lock your vehicle. See
Doors and Locks (page 59).
Disarming the Alarm
Disarm and silence the alarm by unlocking
the doors with the key and switching the
ignition on within 12 seconds, or by
unlocking the doors or the cargo area with
the remote control.
Police Perimeter Alert System
(If
Equipped)
Note: The Police Perimeter Alert System is
primarily intended to monitor moving
pedestrians but also detects objects like
vehicles and bikes. Fast vehicles, stationary
objects and small objects like birds may also
be ignored.
Note: The Police Perimeter Alert System
feature does not function outside of Park
(P) or with any door open. The system uses sensors to monitor
detected objects moving near your parked
vehicle.
Detected moving objects are displayed as
moving dots on the systems instrument
cluster display.
Once the system detects approaching
objects crossing the selected range
perimeter, the vehicle sounds a tone, and
may roll up the windows and lock the
doors.
The system may also activate the rear view
camera if the display is in the Information
and Entertainment screen.

Police Perimeter Alert Settings
Note: When the Police Idle feature is active,
windows will not automatically roll up.
Note: When window or door locking is
active, corresponding icons will display in
the instrument cluster.
Note: When Low mode is active, window
or door locking setting is not available.
The Police Perimeter Alert system has
three range settings Low, Medium or High
via the menu in the instrument cluster
display. Use the steering wheel controls to
adjust the settings when active.
Object Detection
Note: A pedestrian near large obstructions
such as vehicles or walls may not be
detected until the person moves away from
the obstruction.
Note: Sensor reflections from stationary
objects may cause false objects to briefly
appear on the Police Perimeter Alert System
display.
Note: Sensor obstructions such as; dirt,
mud, precipitation, repair compound,
stickers, graphics, bumper guards, trailers,
or bicycle/cargo racks - in front of the
sensors can cause system sensing
degradation.
The Police Perimeter Alert system uses
sensors located behind the rear bumper
on both sides of your vehicle. The sensors
will perform best if the vehicle is parked in
an open area without large obstructions
or walls nearby. System Error
If the system senses a Police Perimeter
Alert System fault, a warning message will
appear in the information display. See
General Information (page 85).
